About Our Organization
The Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War National Organization consists of all the State Departments, Tents, Detached Tents, and Members-At-Large.
Local groups, called Tents, are named for Army Nurses who served in the Civil War or any loyal woman of the Civil War era whose patriotic deeds during the years 1861 – 1865 were recorded.
In states with less than three Tents, the Tents are called Detached Tents. When a state has three or more Tents, they become organized under a State Department.
Our Mission
The Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War, 1861 – 1865 is a not-for-profit organization formed to unite the daughters, granddaughters, great granddaughters, and all female direct lineal descendants of honorably discharged Union Veterans of the Civil War in promoting our principle mission which is: to perpetuate the memories of our ancestral fathers who served in the Civil War, to honor their loyalty and their unselfish sacrifices to preserve the Union, and to keep alive the history of those who participated in that heroic struggle for the maintenance of our free government.
